Really?

Might be about time for me to start playing JRPGs.

You know, I've always hated the controls in Demon's Souls/Dark Souls. The fact that clicking the left analog stick in makes you switch an item corresponding with the direction you move it (and frankly one or two other directions too, it's really sensitive) is just one of the worst control designs imaginable. You constantly end up getting killed just because your player switches items for no good reason. I honestly don't know why more people didn't complain about it.

...but then I realized that my PS3 controller has been broken for a almost a year and that none of that actually had anything to do with the games.

Or in other physical releases for maybe a few bucks more than GoG. Can still get the Baldur's Gate collection for $15, Icewind Dale collection for $15, etc.

Well the Dungeons & Dragons Anthology is the one that seems to have shot up in price - unless there's another similarly titled anthology I don't know about.

But the Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale collections are $15 each. Planescape Torment can also be found for $15.

The only "problem" now is Temple of Elemental Evil which seems to be $33 on Amazon.

Unless of course you purchase it in this compilation... Is that even real? Looks like a bad photoshop? :lol:

You can still get the DnD Anthology for $20 at gamestop. That's where I got my copy.
